between 0ldtown and Bangor, caused more
than a weeks delay in the shipment OF the
lumber for the life-saving house at this
place, and the failure of the captain OF the
good schooner Emma to fulfil his contract to
deliver his cargo at the Cape landing instead
of Portland harbor caused further yexa-
tious delay of several days more in getting
the materials TO their destination. Mr..
Wing, the builder. on learning Capt. Dooly's
refusal to beach his vessel at the Cape cove,
promptly chartered the sloop Ripple for the
transhipment of the Emma's cargo, and
during Saturday and Sunday Capt. Doone of
the Ripple transferred to his vessel and
brought to the Cape, in two trips, the entire
load of materials.
Sunday was as pleasant as the several pre-
ceding days had been, bringing an unusual
crowd of visitors for so early in the season,
all of whom manifested much interest in the
life-saying house, and many of whom were
heard earnestly discussing the chances for
situation on the crew. Among the host of
applicants for the keepership are several
very worthy and well qualified men from
Portland and this town. Nj.
